I have a model 3 that had the misfortune of going through a house fire. The keyboard is ruined and it won't access the disk drives but it does power on. I...
I see Model 3's all the time on eBay, some working, some just for parts. And I've bought a lot of stuff there too. Check it out. If you don't happen to see one...
There's one on eBay right now that is "for parts". It is item # 8792908088. ... parts. And I've bought a lot of stuff there too. ... every couple of days....
Hi, I just bought a Model 4 on Ebay. I have a copy of LS-DOS that I burned on my Model 4P. It loads as far as showing "Welcome to LS-DOS" in a green rectangle....
... burned? :-) :-) The reset isn't actually Z80 reset, it is NMI and goes through a "hook" in RAM so it is not so strange if loading the DOS somehow failed. ...
Bob, LS-DOS should be asking your for the date and time, unless it's been patched to read it from an add-on. If your 4 doesn't have that, it could cause a...
Hi all, I've read that Radio Shack left the external drive connector off the 4P for marketing reasons, but the 4P is fully capable of supporting up to 4...

Knut, I don't believe that it does. Reset is the highest priority interrupt on the Z-80, and even stops the refresh. If your computer is "locking up", more...
Bob, Opening the 4 isn't pretty, but it's not that tough if you take a few precautions. The CRT stays with the top, and the neck is exposed, so you have to be...
... To clarify: What I meant is that after a bad boot on the III and also the 4 I think somehow reset would not boot a different known good disk. I think the...
Hi, I've got a 12meg hard disk hooked up to my M4. I've reserved some space on it that I want to use with a M3 DOS. I want to set up a M3 boot disk that has a...
Hallo, You've got the company right, but not the name. - LDOS 5.x is the one he needs. - LS-DOS was the name for the model 4 version of the same OS. They can...
I figured LDOS would be a good choice based on my personal experiences with their later OSes for the M4. I'm not concerned about the M4 and MIII OSes reading...

Yes, there will be TRS-80s there. A 6000, a CoCo3, a 4p, a 12 (running LS-DOS and CP/M), and probably several others. Maybe even some of the early PC lines. If...
